    Just superb the pair of them. Rotherham had a couple of chances, nothing unusual in that, but Roberts and MacDonald looked rock solid today. Composure and good distribution too. Was it Robbo that found Armstrong in the first half with that ball the ended up with Armstrong clipping the bar?

    When we get Yiadom back that's some back 4 mate.

    During our last spell at this level I can't remember us having such a good back line. Individually yes, collectively? Not all at once.

    You're spot on. Collectively, they graft and cover for each other. Sum of the parts greater value.

    Halcyon days. And another week in the life of BFC passes. Roll on Tuesday.

    It was Robbo yes. Angus was superb. Brilliant block when Ward looked certain to score in the first half. Love this pair.

    While we're talking about the defence, let's not forget Davies! It's so easy to take keepers for granted until you don't have one that can be trusted. I'm so glad he's signed a new deal
